Hold up :whoa: before y'all 1star and neg me to death. Any halfway knowledgeable fan can spot a bad FA signing or bad trade a mile away. I think any one of us would have done a better job than Billy King on the nets. I know the Russian wanted him to win now but damn.

Recent examples.

Billy King trading 1s round picks for old ass players.
Danny Ainge having all them picks and assets and still can't build a team that can challenge the Cavs.
The Crabbe contract and the Meyers Leonard contract.
The Deng and Mozgov contracts.
The Noah contract.
The Hawks not trading their players before they walk away for basically nothing smh.
The Mahimi contract .
Orlando assembling a team that everybody and they mama knew didn't fit together last summer.
Doc Rivers refusing to get a decent wing player or invest in some young players.
The Tristan Thompson contract and the signing of Jose Calderon. Drafting Anthony Bennett.
The pistons fukking up the little cap room they had by signing Langston Galloway when he is just an average backup point guard.
New Orleans signing Jrue Holiday to a big ass contract when they could've had George Hill or Teague for way cheaper. Ain't too much difference between the 3.

All of them are just some recent examples. When a bad deal happen it's a general consensus that they are bad deals. So why do NBA GM still do obviously dumb shyt? Is being a treadmill team that lucrative in today's age. I know a lot of shyt comes with being a GM but still. So could a Coli poster do better than some GMs from a free-agent signing, trade , and drafting perspective?

GarPax traded Gary Harris and Jusuf Nurkic for the 11th pick and then drafted Doug McDermott over Zach LaVine

GarPax traded Taj Gibson, McDermott and a 2nd round pick for Cam Payne and Joffrey Lavuernge. Bulls rescinded the QO for Joffrey yesterday. Cam doesn't look like he belongs in the G League.

Yes.

I'd be the best bet :dame:

I can build a great roster cap space or not.

For the (somehow) Cavs get: JJ Redikk, Joe Johnson, Demarcus Cousins, Deandre Liggins.

Get rid of: Shumpert, Tristan Thompson, Deron Williams, Kay Felder, James Jones.

Idk about all that breh. That's seems impossible. The Cavs didn't have the assets to get Cousins or Redikk.

1st Round Playoff Exits
:whoa: I think Crabbe is worth but paying evan turner and Meyers Leonard was just :snoop:

The problem with crabbe is that he's a starter, plus he's not the 1st option either. Dude really needs to be starting somewhere with no stars. He doesn't really have a role tailored to his game. But if he were to have gone to the Nets dude probably would have balled out....

shyt Id be for sure better than that dude who got axed in Orlando. Dude was laughably terrible.
Otis smith you mean? Let turkey walk citing the awful deal Toronto gave him only to trade for him a year later and trade Rashard Lewis away for a useless player with an even worse deal :heh:. The nets gave up 4 first round picks for Deron Williams and then gave up I think even more picks for Joe Johnson too :dead:
